The Long Eaton School
Darbyshire, EnglandSchool grounds designated a BBC Breathing Place
Fall 2008

We
have just been awarded a Big Lottery Grant as our school grounds has been
designated a "BBC Breathing Places". Over the next few months
we will be building a pond as a safe haven for water voles and we will
also be planting a large garden allottment to grow our fresh fruit and
vegatables.Our tulip bulbs are planted in our new Sensory Garden.
Our ECO committee help with the garden and we have a Oak and Acorn Group
The Oaks are the adults (grandparents) from a local Allottment - they
come and show our Acorns (children) how to plant and look after the plants
and shrubs.
